It was close to a metro station, and to the train station, the neighbor wasn't to good, but you never stay there for a day you just go to the other side of the city. The walls are a bit thin so you could hear other guests, but for me it wasn't a problem.

I really enjoyed my stay here, the outside building may be a bit disguising at first but it's newly re done inside and looks great. Everything was clean and well organized, the location is also really good, close to the coloso and not to far for metro

I was scammed on this booking. I'd booked to stay at I Dormienti, which is located in an area of Rome with a bit of character and quite close to the Colosseum and other attractions. When I arrived I was told my room was still occupied and the occupants hadn't decided if they were staying an extra night (at 8pm - bearing in mind I'd only booked it the day before). When the guy supposedly went to ask if the occupants would be leaving, he simply went round a corner and waited a few minutes before returning to say they were. As a result I was being moved to a sister hotel further away behind the train station. The 'owner' of both hostels then told me the problem was due to plumbing in I Dormienti. The other hostel was fine and the staff eventually friendly, but this seemed a well repeated scheme.

As for the rest of the hostel. It's basic. The shower door fell off when I got in the room (although they fixed it quickly). The breakfast was not worth calling breakfast - a croissant and a coffee at a nearby cafe.

But it was clean and safe. If they were more honest about the location, I'd probably still have booked, but the dishonesty leaves a slightly bitter taste to an otherwise good couple of days in Rome.

thanks you SIR

The place was very nice, great location (few mins from Colosseum, 1min from metro). The rooms were clean, and they had cleaning every day. We had a little mix up with the ensuite WC, had a private but not ensuite one instead, if it is important to you, write a mail to make sure. But the WC was also nice, clean and spacious. Jewel was a very nice and helpful host, the other guy a little less so, but he was also OK. Had a little incident with late checkout, which they said they can make happen but didn't. All in all, I recommend I dormienti

We had a little problem at the beggining due to overbooking in the main building, so we had to stay in another place (that was also quite good). The room was very large, a little bit noisy during the night because of some bars if you leave the window open but there is also the air conditioning.

The room was clean and nice when we arrived, but was not cleaned during our stay (4 nights). Good service by the staff. Wifi was weak, and on and off. No breakfast because we had ordered through Hostelclub. Except for that, value for money :-)

I think the hotel was recently remodeled. Very clean, new furniture, nice and clean shower room.

But sometimes shower turned to be cold after a few minutes of running of it. And for those who don't speak Italian... it might be HARD for you to communicate with hotel people in English... I mean the guy I spoke to tried to understand what I was saying but I don't think he did understand me.

Cheap and central 7 room "hostel". No breakfast.

Assure that somebody is at the reception at the time you arrive!

I Dormienti was awesome for us!! It is very central located: you walk 1 minute to the metro station, 10 minutes to colloseum! Via Urbana is a lovely typical italian street with bars and cafés. Our room was cleaned every day and everything was modern and new. Nevertheless we slept and stayed there, but for partying you should go out!! But hey..you're in roma!

Very nice rooms, great location, but bathroom was outside from the room, that wasn´t so comfortable. And every night was somebody ringing on a doorbell...

We really liked the hotel! Great position, in the city centre, near the Coloseo, few steps from metro station. Rooms seemed new and were very clean, charmy and comfortable: air condition, modern bathroom, unique atmosphere. Very noisy. No parking. Gave us maps of Rome. Free internet. I recommend it and would come back!

Location was exellent on bubbly really lively part of Rome. Room was really clean and tidy. I liked the modern look of the room a lot. Defenitly recommend to deal with I DORMIENT.

Over the corner there were Italian restaurant where I eate best pasta ever with good apertisers. But do not go indian food restaurant near by, they will clean u´r wallet and you end up leaving hungry.
